About us
Western Reserve Area Agency on Aging (WRAAA) is a private non-profit corporation, organized and designated by the State of Ohio to be the planning, coordinating and administrative agency for federal and state aging programs in Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, Lorain and Medina Counties. It is one of twelve Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) in the state organized together with local service provider organizations and the Ohio Department of Aging (ODA) to form the state's public aging services network. The network works together to develop systems of long-term services and supports (LTSS); and to create opportunities for older Ohioan's to receive them and to age successfully in their own homes and communities. The Agency is also involved in a number of special projects created in response to identified needs and opportunities. Those projects include helping LTC consumers better transition between care settings and empowering them to assume more responsibility for their health and wellness through prevention and disease self-management; and working with the VA to assist veterans with dementia.
